Haircut and sitting up

this weekend we got Hayden's hair trimmed. It was her 3rd haircut ever and she did great.
videos on my phone helped keep her still

showing me her video

Quinn and Hayden had small fevers this weekend so we laid low. Quinn is the Queen of the runny nose :) She is sitting up really good now and is really close to crawling.

Look at that slobber hanging off her chin! :)

She has the cutest cheek dimples when she smiles

I LOVE Quinn's eyes!

so precious....


Here is a video of Quinn sitting up and and playing with her toys.

Superbowl, Phoenix, Valentine's Day

The last few weeks were busy and I have completely been lazy about updating the blog. My apologies! Let me catch you up..... Quinn is 5 months old and practically crawling!
Hayden is almost potty trained....

My parents retired and are spending 3 months in Phoenix. Last weekend we met my brother and his family in Phoenix for a few days. We had a blast! My nephew, Grady, is a year older than Hayden and my niece, Allie, is 2 years older. They had a great time together!

The place my parents are renting have a putting green in the back yard. Kids and adults alike had fun with that.

hanging out at a park...

having fun swinging!

Craig, Jill, Kevin and I went to Sedona for 2 days. It was great to leave the kids with my parents. Sedona is absolutely beautiful!

This is a fault line and it shows how an earthquake hundreds of years ago moved the earth 5 inches! That crack (showing the earthquake) was 5 miles long!

We took a jeep tour in Sedona and it was fun! We definitely went off-roading!

Can you see the Eagle and his nest?

Can you see the camel?

This was a chapel built into the rock

and this is a ridiculously huge house right across from the chapel

just being goofy

We went to a place called Rawhide that is a re-enactment of an old western town. Cowboys, face gun fights in the streets, carriage rides, etc. The kids had a great time. Hayden still talks about the cowboys that she saw

We had a nice Valentine's day. This is a beautiful book that Clay, Lisa, Mitch, Will and Gracie got Hay and Quinn. We have been reading it almost every night

On Saturday night, Kevin and I went out on a much -needed date. I had a gift certificate from my company (baby shower gift) that entitled me to a massage and a fancy dinner. Lauren and Lucas volunteered to babysit while we were out. I think Quinn and Hay had a great time!

Happy 3rd Birthday Hayden!

For Hay's Bday we went to Disneyland! Here is Hay and Tiger getting comfortable in our hotel room
We let Quinn roll around a bit before putting her in the stroller. She was such a good baby at Disneyland.

When we first walked in there was Mickey and the line was short to meet him. Hayden was acting shy, so Mickey ticked her. She liked that.

We spent most of the day in Toon Town. Hayden liked Goofy's house.

Quinn and I hanging out in Goofy's chair

She had a blast!

Hayden also got to meet Goofy

Having fun in Donald Duck's boat

Hayden steering the ship!

Daddy, Hayden and Quinn at Mickey Mouse's house

We got to meet Mickey again.

Standing in line for the Winnie the Pooh ride

Hayden was so excited she could barely wait!

My camera died and I took these pictures on my cell phone. We scored great seats for the 7pm parade. Here is Quinn and I getting ready for the show!

Daddy and Hayden. We stayed for the 9pm fireworks and the Hayden crashed. We went to a Denny's across from Disneyland to eat dinner, but Hayden just slept in the booth. Disney wore her out!

The next morning we went to Krispy Kreme Donuts before we headed home. Hayden liked the hat and LOVED the donuts!

Look at that chocolate face!

hahahahahahahaha!

We had some friends over for a Sunday night Birthday celebration.

playing with her whistle

Hayden also got an entire trunk filled with dress up clothes. The pon poms were actually buckeye colors!

Here we are singing Happy Birthday to Hayden. Take note, that she is sobbing in this picture! I think this is 3 years in a row that she has cried when we sing Happy Birthday to her. :)

She liked her cake. The open chocolate spots were where Dora, Diego and Boots were sitting.
